These are the times that try men's souls: the summer solider and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.--Thomas Paine
These are the times that try men's souls: the lukewarm Christian and nominal church goer will, in crisis of faith (or when the Devil is himself), shrink from the service of Jesus Christ; but he that stands (Ephesians 6:13, et. al.) not to defend, but to press the battle to the very gates of Hell, deserve to cast their crowns before the throne of God for He alone is worthy of all glory and honor.--Robert Williams
